Good Post and 95% of all GNR Fans love, I mean LOVE Slash. The only haters are here on the boards.... There is not need to "hate" any guy that has ever worked in Guns. I might not like Robin's playing, but personally I have no issues with him. Axl told pretty much 95% of his fans to fuck off. Sad thing is, he doesn't realize he did that. He probably things everyone hates Slash like he does. Poor guy...:slash:
I really doubt Axl think everyone hates Slash like he does. He's read the boards. He knows how many people love Slash and he knows how many appreciate Slash's work.

Then why did he tell all his supporters to fuck off?

If I had some fans treat me the way they treat him, I'd probably tell them to fuck off too.
Re: Axl Rose Insists Original Guns N' Roses Lineup Is Dead and Buried
NO INTEREST is why the tour will be 1/4 full.
It ain't got a fuckin' thing to do with the economy, and they'll lie to themselves to convince themselves of it.
I look at this whole thing as Axl just expressing his opinion, and nothing else. Take from it what you will. We already knew he hates Slash with a purple passion, for whatever reason.
Madagas can try to rationalize the song thing all they want, it was Axl himself in 1999 that claimed like 70 songs were being worked on. IN 1999! Ten years ago.
I'm not saying things don't change, but to turn around and blame Baz basically is BULLSHIT. I'm actually giving some sympathy to Bach here. It was Axl that started it ALL. At 15 tracks a piece give or take, 70 songs is basically saying, "we're working on about 5 albums at the moment".
Now suddenly there's no material.
I used to look up to Axl as a bit of an inspiration as a rebel, but as I become wiser and life goes on... he looks crazier and crazier.

Not because they like Slash, but because they are generally really critical of him.
I'm sorry, but I can like old GNR, new GNR, and any side projects and bands that have come since.
Axl does touch on one very good point about Slash. Slash stays in his comfort zone, and doesn't really push himself too much. And his music has lacked a certain feel and energy to it for quite some time now. That's my opinion on the matter.
Re: Axl Rose Insists Original Guns N' Roses Lineup Is Dead and Buried
Axl could have shot down the hype years ago but he blew it all up himself also.
He is the one who stood on stage saying CD was going to have X amount of songs with a bonus disc of b sides, then saying they would tour and after that they would be ready to release the next album.
The man has a well documented past of trying to change history to suit his own particular needs.
And the economy is no exuse for poor sales, music thrives and develops during hard times. Whole revolutions in music have grown throughout difficult times.
Times were tough when GNR had their glory days.
